Original estimates earlier in the week had Eminem’s Recovery tracking at moving 600K+ units in first week sales. Now it looks like Em’s album will really bring a recovery to the entire industry as new projections are going as high as 700K.Billboard states:

Sources now estimate “Recovery” will rack up the biggest sales week for a single album in more than 18 months, as it should sell in excess of 700,000 by week’s end on Sunday, June 27.
